It's has been long... the face shop haul

Hi..

   I'm Back. It's been a while.. no very long since I posted my last blog. I have been very busy. I was hired as a project officer to an NGO here in General Santos and I stopped studying temporarily.

   Since I was gone for a long time.. I will review about my latest haul from The Face Shop. They opened a store here in SM Gensan and that made my shopping for Korean Skin Care products easier. Though we don't have any other Korean Brands to choose from, it's a start. More to come then!!!

this how I'am now;-)

   This are my latest haul from The Face Shop..

I bought the SMIM Radiating Moisture Essence and Herb Day Cleansing Wipes and I ended up with all these other products as freebies : Raspberry Roots Extract Sleeping Pack, Tea Tree Toner and Lotion Sampler,and Two Facial Mask:Aloe and Pomegranate 

   

   I have been using the SMIM Radiating Moisture Essence for 3 days and so far I was doing good. It kept my skin moisturized and soft. This is specially when I wake up in the morning after applying this at night. Its one of the bestseller of Face Shop and they have two other variants to choose from depending on your need: 

      

      SMIM Pore Finish Essence that tightens and fills in the pores. It has Tibetan Mushroom (fermented milk particles) extract and Gold Label Balsamic Vinegar that helps tighten widened pores and cares for skin making it soft and smooth as a baby's; and 

      SMIM Fermentation Concentrate Essence that is an anti-aging concentrate essence for younger looking skin with Tibetan and Chaga Mushroom that will provide skin hydration, resilience and density. It contains Beta Glucan and Betaine that is excellent for anti-inflammatory and skin regeneration effects; and Sweet Almond Seed Extract for fast absorption and skin resilience. 

SMIM Radiating Moisture Essence 

  It contains Cloud berry and fermented Caviar, it hydrates the inner skin with full of moisture, and makes skin luminous by the moisture effect... Restore luster on rough skin. 

 ..It gently exfoliates while adding moisture to skin.. How to use: After toner, take adequate amount of essence and evenly apply to your skin.

 
   I have been reading wattpad stories and ebooks again that usually keep me up until 2 am. So you can imagine the way my skin feels now; its oily, have large pores, and looks really dull. That is the reason why I went to the aid these skin care products. 

   
   The SMIM radiating moisture essence kept my face radiant and moisturized. It feels soft and made my face look like I had enough rest. Though it didn't do anything about my large pores and oilyness.

   That's why I also use the Face Shop Pore Minimizer Controlling Emulsion (that's another review)

   I am following the 5 Step regimen to skin care now: Cleanser, Mask, Toner, Emulsion/ Essence, and moisturizer. 

1. Cleanser: The Face Shop 365 Herb Day in Aloe;
2. Mask: The Face Shop: Pomegranate/ Aloe but I prefer the Vitamin C of Etude House;
3. Toner: Ponds Pinkish White Beauty Pore Minizer;
4. Emulsion/ Essence: 
• The Face Shop Pore Minimizer Controlling Emulsion
• The Face Shop SMIM Radiating Moisture Essence; and 
5. Moisturizer: Ponds Pinkish White Beauty Day Cream

   Hmmm.. What do you think? Is it too much or just right? I'll update after a month;-)
